“It’s good to know you’re keeping an eye on things...” (a member of the Society)
This is an independent, non-political society open to anyone interested in Alton
(Hampshire, England) to join, on payment of the modest subscription. Those who choose
to become more actively involved bring a range of talents to bear as they watch what
is happening to the town, and especially as they monitor planning applications. They
provide informed, articulate and responsible comment which achieves its effect simply
through having earned the respect of the statutory authorities.
Everyone can be a member of the society.
It only costs £12.50 a year for two people at the same address - have a look at the
membership page now
We also offer a no-obligation trial run for anyone interested in joining the committee.
Give us a ring on 01420 83416 and arrange to sit in on a meeting and see what you
think of us. Dates are on the Committee page
Alton Town Council has decided to apply to join the 70 towns in Britain with ‘Walkers
are Welcome’ status. But in order to qualify and obtain the associated benefits it
has to demonstrate the support of a substantial number of local people (500 is suggested).
If you are an Altonian please help by using the simple online poll below, which does
not record your name.
